So I'm attempting to find out stuff about the English Military system in the 1500 and I'd love some help.
I would like to know the basics of the military around 1500 - 1530, or anywhere in between. If you could be so kind as to answer these specific questions it would help quite a bit! If not, and you still want to help, I'd still appreciate some basic information!
What was the ranking system, and how did it work? did they have regular soldiers like archers, foot soldiers, horsemen, etc..? if so, which kind did they have? did they have specific formations, like a testudo formation, wedge formation, etc..? did they move in a specific order? if they did in fact have specific soldier groups, how did they line them up?
I know this is a tall order. I don't expect every question to be answered, but if you can answer at least part of it, or link me to a site that can I'll be forever grateful!
